FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

Electromagnetism Noun

[uh-lek-troh-mag-ni-tiz-uhm]

Back

Electromagnetism


A fundamental force of nature that can be attractive or repulsive, involving electric and magnetic fields.

Example: This diagram shows how electricity creates a magnet. When electric current from the battery flows through the coiled wire, the iron bar inside becomes a temporary magnet with a north and south pole.
